The affected tires are the BFGoodrich Commercial T/A and A/S and Uniroyal Laredo HD/H.
Tires being recalled can be identified by information on the tires’ sidewalls. All tires have a code starting with DOT. The affected BFGoodrich tires will then have the code BFOR JD11 followed by numbers from 1310 to 2912; BE11 JD11 followed by the numbers from 1310 to 0312; or BF11 JD11 followed by the numbers 1311 to 5211.
After DOT, the affected Uniroyal tires will have the code BF0R JDUU followed by the numbers 1310 to 2912; BE11 JDUU followed by the numbers 1310 to 0312; or BF11 JDUU followed by the numbers 1311 to 5211.
I got one Uniroyal HD/H on a trailer that will leak about 2# per month.... Mine are three years old so I guess I won't be affected...

I also heard that thousands of light truck and van owners in North America may be affected by a big voluntary tire recall effort announced recently by Michelin North America, Inc. Anyway, you can get car loans with bad credit to pay for your brand new car with brand new tires.

I know a few people that had the tires in the recall. They had separated about 6 months after original purchase and had to replace. Tire dealers gave them new tires with full warranties. One person had recalled tires on their horsetrailer and truck, another just on trailer.
